Answer: x=-20

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable(x) by dividing each side by factors (50) that do not contain the variable.

Answer:

The value of x is -20.

Step-by-step explanation:

50 = -2.5x                    Isolate the variable by dividing -2.5 on both sides

-20 = x                      

 You must isolate the variable in order to solve equations with variables.

Isolating variable is basically when you divide, multiply, add, or subtract to put a variable on <em><u>ONLY</u></em> one side of the equation.

Two towns, Ancaster and Dundas, are 4 km and 6 km, respectively, from an old railroad line that has been made into a bike trail.
serg [7]
Okay, so first you draw a picture and let x be the distance from point D to the rest stop. Then the distance from point  to the rest stop is  8 - x

You know that the length of the new trail is y + z, where y is the distance from Ancaster to the rest stop and z is the distance from Dundas to the rest stop. 

Now by the Pythagorean theorem,  y^2 = 4^2 + x^2 and  z^2 = 6^2 + (8 - x) ^2

So take square roots of these, add them, and minimize. 

Note: I am assuming the path is perfectly straight, otherwise this approach fails.

Prove that the sum of the squares of any two odd numbers is always even
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a number is even if it is expressed so n = 2k. It is odd if it is in the form 2k + 1 (k is just an integer)

Let's say we have to odd numbers, 2a + 1, and 2b + 1. We are after the sum of their squares, so we have (2a + 1)^2 + (2b + 1)^2. Now let's expand this;

(2a + 1)^2 + (2b + 1)^2 = 4a^2 + 4a + 4b + 4b^2 + 4b + 2

= 2(2a^2 + 2a + 2b^2 + 2b + 1)

Now the sum in the parenthesis, 2a^2 + 2a + 2b^2 + 2b + 1, is just another integer, which we can pose as k. Remember that 2 times any random integer, either odd or even, is always even. Therefore the sum of the squares of any two odd numbers is always even.
